Plywood and Blockboard R&D
Lightweight honeycomb panels, ideal for use in fairs, exhibitions, congresses, and museums, can come with a raw MDF face or a lighter weight poplar plywood face for an even lighter result.
Take for instance, a 2000x1000x40mm panel with a 3mm poplar plywood face, which can weigh as little as 8.5kg!… Read more...
When producing large-size sliding doors, dividers and partitioning, tables and bench tops, the risk of warping or bowing is very high.
The so-far unequalled solid wood solution, is triple-core poplar blockboard.
Triple-core blockboard is a special construction with 3-ply of cross-banded blockboard cores, overlaid by poplar veneer or thin HDF.… Read more...
Lightweight particle board poplar panels are unique both in their appearance and in their physical and mechanical properties. They have a compact core of environmentally-friendly poplar timber, and a fine surface with micro-particles with very light color, typical of the wood they are 100% made of.
The careful selection of poplar timber particles, mostly coming from trees discarded by sawmills and plywood producers, ensures excellent stability and high workability even at the edges, as well as ease of cutting, machining, milling, and molding processes.… Read more...
Paricá plywood panels are produced with high-quality rotary-cut veneers of Schizolobium amazonicum, the most cultivated native forest species in Brasil: the raw material used by plywood industries are sustainable as they come from planted forests (reforestation), reducing the deforestation of native forests.
Forests planted with Paricá occupies a total of 90,000 ha, spread between the states of Pará, Maranhão and Tocantins.… Read more...
One of the latest industrial applications on blockboard, consists in overlaying the panel with a durable decorative surface material, called continuous high pressure laminate (cHPL or CPL). This panel has special performance properties including chemical, fire, and wear resistance, which add to the well-known great features of blockboard.
Some of the most common enforcements are structures for upper and lower kitchen cabinets, workbenches, child room and office furniture, and all kinds of articles that require excellent resistance to scratch and hard use.… Read more...
